To the right of the throne chairs there is a lever, activate the lever and go into the room on the right. The pillars are them same, copy this sequence in the room on the left. Go back into the middle room and pull the chain on the wall opposite the chairs and bookshelf. The grate to the basement should open. If it doesn't go back into the room on the left and reverse the pillars (i.e. swap the first and third pillar but leave the middle one the same - i forget the exact order)

If you figure out how to get into the room that's activated by the claw (with dragon, falcon and wolf as options) let me know, because that's where I'm stuck!

How do you beat the folgunther puzzle? Not the one with the levels but the one with the spinning pillars and animals on them? I have no clue?

Thanks!

I find it interesting that not a single one of these replies answered your detailed question. I had a hard time too and tried every variation of the three pillars and got it on the 19th variation. The answer is from left to right Bird on the left then Whale in the middle then snake to the right. Then go out of the room and pull the chain that normally causes arrows to fly when you get it wrong.

That is Bird, Whale, snake and pull the chain (not the lever) in the next room.

Then on the next puzzle (like the above post said)....look at the claw to get the configuration. If I remember that next puzzle from top to bottom would be 1 turn, 1 turn, 2 turns. Then get ready to fight.
